How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Cowpen Bewley questions

Do you cover the entire of Stockton-on-Tees?

All of Stockton-on-Tees, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Stockton-on-Tees and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Signs you need sink repair in Cowpen Bewley

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
